CPS Review, Cuttlebug Challenge #15, and Jan. Provo Craft

Happy Thursday everyone! I have quite a few things to share with you today. First up is my card for this week's sketch review at the CPS blog. I chose sketch #92, because it was a week that I had to actually miss out on due to my schedule...so it is my first time using it! We also suprised Tami Mayberry, the creator of the blog and all the sketches, and did all baby boy cards this week in honor of the latest addition she has just added to her family. Don't forget I am doing a giveaway at CPS this week, so check out the blog or my last blog post for the details! (And there is something about this paper line and my room- they are HARD to photograph. The colors don't come out very well...so please excuse this less than mediocre photo.)
Up next, I did two cards for the Cuttlebug Challenge #15, using a Becky Fleck sketch and my Cuttlebug. This first card uses up some fabulous scraps of the "Sunshine Lollipop" by Sassafras Lass that I have been holding on to (I know I use Sass product a lot...it is one of my faves!). The circles are also all embossed using my Cuttlebug, and either the Houndstooth or Swiss Dots embossing folders.
This second card uses some Scenic Route "Loveland" papers that I have never cut into...it was good to make myself use them! I just love the hearts! It also uses the Floral Fantasy embossing folder...I have had this one forever and never used it! So glad I am breaking out items that have been sitting in my stash forever!
Up next are my January projects for Provo Craft. I was assigned to use my Cricut and non-licenses cartidges, on projects that don't pertain to any type of holiday. The first project is this cute Strawberry Gift Set, which uses the "Indie Arts" and "Street Signs" cartridges.


Next up is this Tree Card & Envelope set, which uses the "Wild Cards" cartridge. This was my first time using this cartridge, and it was fun! (This is card set #7, also called .) Lots of great things you can create with this one! Love it!


And last, but not least, is this What A Hoot card, using the "Storybook" cartridge. There are TONS of fabulous cuts on this cartridge, and the greatest part about the letters....they easily cut at small sizes. The letters on this card were cut at 3/4 inch, but I had also cut them out at 1/2 inch to see which size I wanted to use...and those smaller ones cut out perfectly as well. Just be sure to have a sharp blade!
That is everything I have to share today! I know- there was lots! Hope that it inspired you a litte, at least! I will be doing some more cardmaking tonight, as Josh is having a video game night with a friend of his. So, expect another post in the next couple days with more to share!

Until later,
